Royals as hot as they come, no need to fade until they give me a reason to do so.

Sonny was the July AL Pitcher of the Month, going 5-1 with a 2.73 era in nine starts. The A's are 8-1 in his last 9 starts as a road favorite. If you're into past trends, the A's are 15-3 in his last 18 starts following a team loss. Should be a good game and a great series. BoL...

I'm flying in tomorrow...as much as I want to believe in KC...from the start I've been against their lineup, and I still believe it will be their downfall

Moose batting below the Mendoza line all year at 3rd is a train wreck...eventually something has got to give

Pauulzcappin · 08-11-14, 04:27 PM

no way oakland should be -145. i'm taking kc tonight but a bit worried after seeing this price for the series

the Halos going 1-5 last 6 have a strange way of hunting down the A's

Moose 6 for 18 in his last five, I strongly believe KC goes as Moose goes.
If Moose starts hitting to his potential, and Hosmer comes back healthy, they just might steal this division.
Shields always goes real deep in the game, Duffy is effective but not really an innings eater, which is just fine, because they got that 1-2 8th and 9th inning lights out 'pen. Shields saves bullpen innings, which may be needed if Duff falters or runs out of gas, same with Ventura.

I'm with ya...but check his numbers against lefties...brutal...dude can't hit them. Everyone in the organization, stands, and the city know that he can't and that's why they had Danny V on the roster. Now the have Christian Colon up to possibly hit off left handers, but if Moose is coming up with runners in scoring position they're screwed

NittanyLionsFan · 08-11-14, 05:58 PM

I would bet even money on Moose having 3+ hits tonight.

No..you seem to know everything...I think I've got a handle on the Royals this year..went to Surprise for Spring Training...been to the K for 20 games...sat through all of his issues...watched him get sent down to Omaha this season...good luck tonight on your bet

Blackballer · 08-11-14, 06:10 PM

Percentage wise is Oakland better on the road than Kansas City at home. Most people will likely ride the momentum with Kansas City here. Give me Oakland as the slight road favorite. GLTA.

The angels and athletics are the same thing. Neither team has a single thing the other team doesn't have.

stevenash · 08-11-14, 07:37 PM

1-0
kc

Dirty Sanchez · 08-11-14, 07:50 PM

Sonny Gray throwing some bad off speed pitches right down in the middle of the plate

stevenash · 08-11-14, 07:58 PM

2-0 KC - Gray is a nice young talent and all, but some overhype the kid.

Team is red hot.

If this team can stay steady and make the postseason, they have the rotation and BULLPEN to make some waves
in the playoffs.

If they have the lead going into the 7th they win.
